Thank you! I only ever get the challenges in Riverview, and they're very few and far between, now I can have them whenever I want!

Thank you so much for this - I too have been wanting something like this. It always bugged me that those special challenges hardly came up.

Is it possible to make a mod that makes gigs for bands (they are ability opportunities) more frequent? I need this so much because my band hardly ever gets a gig. It would be great if you could make such a mod!

This mod only increases the probability of events happen?!!
So it works in other languages such as Portuguese for example?

"These special Challenges can only be triggered via the move-in command to a non-empty lot when choosing an active family. You cannot trigger these events when moving the active family in-game or from plopping a family down in Edit Town."

Okay sorry, I guess I need more info. To trigger a challenge, even with your mod, a family has to use the phone and move to a lot with a house already on it?

And yeah, I never do that. I always have a family move into an empty lot and then build -- the camera seems to work better that way. Or plop their little butts onto the lot through Edit Town cos it takes less time that way then to have them use a phone.

Wow! I knew about the meteor and the ghosts (my sister got the ghosts) but I never knew what the others were and I haven't seen one in over a year of playing. Thanks so much. ^_^

@Zeco: I'm not sure, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work in other languages. Try it out and let me know if it works or not.

@coffeebreak: To clarify, you cannot trigger a challenge when moving via phone or computer. Also moving in a family via edit town doesn't work. The one and only way to trigger a challenge is to move a family into a non-empty lot when choosing an active family. I have attached another image to the original post, and have updated it to clarify. Remember, non-empty doesn't mean that it has to have a fully built home. All you need is a single object on the lot, and it is not considered an empty lot, (as long as you move into it furnished that is). If you have problems triggering the challenges let me know.

@AnnabelCrazy: It should be compatible, but since I don't have late night I can't say. Try it out and let me know if it works. Also if you keep getting the same challenge (aka, Graveyard), then try moving into another lot. The challenges are not truly random.

Does this mod work since the new patch that came out with Town Life expansion?
